# Technical Recruiter - Company: [Avoca]() - Location: New York HQ - Team: People - Employment type: Full Time - Salary: $150K – $190K - Posted: July 27, 2026 ## Job description # **About Avoca** Avoca is transforming how home service companies engage with their customers. Our AI-powered conversational agents handle every high-value inbound call, from booking jobs, qualifying leads, and driving higher revenue, all at a speed and consistency unmatched by human call centers. We're a Series B startup backed by Kleiner Perkins, Meritech Capital, General Catalyst, and other top-tier investors, with $125M raised and a $1B valuation. We grew 10x in 2025 and have scaled to 130+ employees in under two years across our NYC headquarters and Santa Barbara office. In a $1T+ market where 85% of missed calls go to competitors, we're building the category-defining platform for AI-driven customer engagement, serving the largest brands in home services. With high-energy, in-office teams in both locations, every hire here has an immediate and visible impact. ## **The Role** We're looking for a Technical Recruiter to own full-cycle hiring for our Engineering and Product teams. You'll partner directly with hiring managers and leadership to build the technical bench that powers Avoca's next stage of growth. This is a high-ownership, high-visibility role at a company scaling fast — you'll help define our technical hiring bar, build repeatable processes from the ground up, and close candidates in a competitive market. ## **What You'll Do** * Own full-cycle recruiting for technical roles (software engineering and technical product roles) from sourcing through offer close. * Partner closely with engineering leaders and hiring managers to define role requirements, calibrate interview loops, and build scorecards. * Proactively source and build pipelines of top-tier technical talent through outbound sourcing, referrals, and creative channels — not just inbound applicants. * Act as a trusted advisor to candidates, clearly articulating Avoca's mission, momentum, and opportunity to win top talent against competing offers. * Drive a fast, high-quality candidate experience end-to-end, including screening, coordinating interviews, and managing offer negotiations. * Build and refine scalable recruiting processes, tools, and metrics as Avoca continues to grow headcount rapidly. * Use data to track pipeline health, funnel conversion, and time-to-fill, and adjust strategy accordingly. * Represent Avoca's employer brand across sourcing channels, networking events, and the broader technical community. ## **What We're Looking For** * 5+ years of full-cycle technical recruiting experience - ideally at high-growth startups. * Proven track record hiring software engineers, ML/AI talent, or similar technical roles at a fast-scaling company. * Strong sourcing chops — you know how to find and engage passive candidates, not just manage inbound. * Excellent judgment in assessing technical talent and partnering with engineering leaders on hiring decisions. * A sense of urgency and ownership; you thrive in a fast-paced, high-growth environment where priorities shift quickly. * Sharp communication and negotiation skills, with the ability to sell candidates on Avoca's mission and trajectory. * Comfortable operating with a high degree of autonomy and building process where none exists yet. * A bias toward action and in-person collaboration — this is an in-office role at our NYC headquarters. * Familiarity with modern sourcing and ATS tooling (e.g., Ashby, LinkedIn Recruiter, Juicebox). ## **Benefits** * Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance * Company-sponsored 401(k) through Vestwell * Flexible PTO plus U.S. federal holidays * Company-wide off-sites * Daily in-office lunch through Parkday * Dinner covered when working late * Commuter benefits and late-night rideshare * Standing desks and workspace accommodations available on request * All core tools and software provided **Compensation:** The expected base salary for this role is $150,000 - $190,000, with final compensation based on experience, skills, and qualifications. Avoca's total compensation package includes base salary, bonus, equity, and a comprehensive suite of benefits. Our Recruiting team will share full details as you progress through the process. # **Why Avoca** At Avoca, you’ll be part of a team that’s building a category-defining company at the center of a massive market opportunity. We’re a fast-moving, collaborative team with a culture designed for builders who thrive on speed, iteration, and impact. *Avoca provides equal employment opportunities to applicants and employees without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, protected veteran status, or disability.* ## Apply [Apply on Avoca]() Canonical job page:
